alternator volts
Hi guys,
how much volts must the alternator bring at 1000 rpm.
Is 13,3 volts not enough at cruising?
Could it be thet the fuel pump brings not enough fuel pressure when i have only about 13 volts?

Using a meter, at the battery with the engine running, you should see 13.8-14.3. With the engine off, you should see at least 12.5 or your battery is either done or discharged.
